Re: Signs of Spring

I have to tell you I watched the Chicago weather on WGN last night, and it
made me feel like I was in the tropics here. You are a brave woman to live
there, Donna. It was 54 here today, and it felt like summer!

currently *minus* 9 actual temp, supposed to warm up to *plus* ten, and of
course, snow- predicting 2-4 inches... just lovely...

no spring here.... last night

Same here.
It was 6 degrees here last night and fiercely windy today.
It's 14 here
tonight but going down to the single digits. There is not any
relief
predicted for at least a week. We have had such low temps before,
but usually
in late December or early January.Because of the very mild
temperatures
through December and early January, many things were
already budding out. The
worst of it is that there is only about an inch
of snow cover for insulation.
The days are getting longer and we are
supposed to have some dimuinition of
the bitter cold.I guess this has
to be the effects of global warming.
